Thinkin bout lifting

I have a 06 4x4 scab with 20x9 MM951's (5.71 BS) w/ 35x12.50 Toyo M/T's. Thinkin bout a suspension lift, maybe 4-6"s. What brand would you reccomend me buyin to run the same setup I have now?

i got a rancho on my truck and love it, just make sure the lift kit you choose will work with your rims (backspace isn't too much)

procomp, fabtech, bsd, superlift, rancho, rize, and probably a few i'm forgetting all make lifts that are solid. BSD is probably the best since they have a awesome warranty but cost more. Pro Comp is probably the best value though.

I think there are some lifts out there that don't drop the torsion bars down.

That would be the way to go. I always worry about bending one when I'm off-roding.

Plus it would look better with them stuck up higher.

Edit - sorry just saw you have a 06. No torsion bars.

its bds. not trying to correct you just making sure he doesnt get confused.

i have the bds. i would highly recommend it. the reason i stayed away from pro comp is b/c the shop told me warranty on them sucks. i payed $2100 installed. it uses a spacer like the procomp.
next step up would be a fabtech from bds or pro comp. probly a few hundred more bucks but it comes with new shocks up front i believe? correct me if im wrong any one.

I'm going with a 6" Fabtech from all the research and feedback I have got on them.
